A Swedish Sports Car

In Brunei and also probably everywhere in the world, car features strongly in stamping down one's status. There are plenty of car choices in the market right now, both luxury and affordable. Apparently this second generation Volvo C70 is currently the only one on the road in Brunei, just bought by our youngest brother.

Launched in Europe in 2006, the car looks heavy for its size due to numerous safety features, typical of Volvo design and reputation. This 2-door coupe convertible features a retractable metal hardtop that can raise or lower in less than 30 seconds. The car is mounted with a thirsty 2.5 L 162kW Five-cylinder turbo charged engine.
